This week Grace speaks to Thea Riofrancos, Associate Professor of Political Science at Providence College and author of Resource Radicals: From Petro-Nationalism to Post-Extractivism in Ecuador.

They discuss the findings of the IPCC’s latest report, whether it’s possible to imagine a green transition within capitalist social relations, and how the Left can chart a path to decarbonization that doesn’t compromise the Earth’s other natural systems and communities.
